The Riss River in Germany is a small tributary of the Danube, flowing through the state of Baden-Württemberg. Known for its serene and natural surroundings, the river is primarily fed by springs and rainfall, leading to relatively cool water temperatures. In winter, temperatures can drop to around 4-6°C (39-43°F), while in summer, they typically range between 15-18°C (59-64°F). These temperatures make the river unsuitable for swimming during colder months but can be refreshing in the summer for those seeking a natural spot.

Swimming in the Riss is not very common due to its small size, relatively cooler waters, and the fact that it is surrounded by rural and agricultural landscapes. However, there are some calmer areas where wading or a quick dip might be possible, especially during the warmer months. The riverbanks are more popular for walking and enjoying the peaceful countryside. Swimmers should exercise caution and verify if swimming is allowed in specific areas, as parts of the river may have environmental protections.
